My Ares Son-in-Law

There was no trace of anger or excitement in Xiao Chen's words, only a hint of sarcasm as cold as a cold pond. Every word was like an extremely sharp blade that pierced straight into Huang Jin's heart. At the same time, it also deeply hurt everyone present who was accustomed to bullying others with force, making them feel ashamed and embarrassed at this moment.

Huang Jin collapsed heavily on the icy ground, as if all his strength had been drained away, and he was like a puddle of mud. Blood oozed from the corners of his mouth, and the blood slowly slid down his cheeks, leaving shocking marks on his pale face.

At this moment, his eyes were filled with panic, like a wild animal trapped in a desperate situation, full of fear and despair. He secretly glanced at Xiao Chen, only to see that Xiao Chen looked indifferent, as if the thrilling confrontation that had just happened around him was just a breeze blowing across the lake, without causing any ripples, and was just a trivial matter in life.

Huang Jin was very clear in his mind that as a powerful warrior at the peak of the Dragon Pill Realm, the all-out attack he had just launched with all his strength and concentrated all his spiritual power was easily resolved in an instant. This cruel fact was like a powerful hammer that hit his heart hard and shook his internal organs to the point of turmoil.

If even his own strength could not suppress the seemingly ordinary Xiao Chen in front of him, then the development of the matter would probably be far beyond his imagination. Once the matter was spread out, the reputation and face that Haohan Valley had worked hard to build in the world would be gone, and it would become a laughing stock for everyone.

Thinking of this, Huang Jin felt as if his heart was overturned with all five flavors, and the feeling of regret completely drowned him like a surging tide.

He was filled with self-blame, regretting that he had been too impulsive. Like a reckless bull, he started fighting without asking any questions. He didn't even have time to figure out the ins and outs of the matter before he rashly plunged into this fight that was almost doomed to fail.

Huang Jin's despair grew stronger. At this critical moment, he suddenly turned his head, with a last glimmer of hope in his eyes, and looked at Shen Lingling anxiously. He knew that this sudden and escalating conflict was caused by Shen Lingling.

Recalling that time, Shen Lingling made a solemn vow, patting her chest loudly, and promised solemnly that no matter what difficulties and obstacles they encountered, Oracle Gate would support them unreservedly and shoulder all the responsibilities.

But now, Haohan Valley has been caught in such a dilemma and embarrassing situation. As the party that made the promise, Oracle Gate naturally cannot stand idly by and watch.

"Miss Shen, save me..." Huang Jin shouted with a tearful voice, his voice full of endless despair and helplessness. This voice kept echoing in the empty and tense restaurant, like a sad elegy, telling his miserable situation at the moment.

Shen Lingling stood there in a daze, like a stiff stone statue. Her face turned pale and red, like the unpredictable sky before a storm. Under the scorching gazes of the people around her, she felt sweat coming out of every pore of her body. She felt like she was sitting on pins and needles, and her heart was as flustered as an ant on a hot pot.

She knew better than anyone that Haohan Valley was no match for Xiao Chen. Huang Jin, a strong man at the peak of the Dragon Pill Realm, was easily defeated by Zhao Chuanshen with a thunderous force before Xiao Chen even made a move.

With such a huge gap in strength, even if the master of the Hero Valley were to be present in person, the result would probably not change.

After all, the Valley Master had only just stepped into the Tianhe Realm. Facing such unfathomable powerful strength as Xiao Chen, challenging him would undoubtedly be like hitting a rock with an egg. Not only would it fail to reverse the situation, but it would only make the Hero Valley and the Oracle Sect even more embarrassed and become a laughing stock in the world.

Xiao Chen's eyes were as calm as water, and he stared at Shen Lingling quietly. His eyes were deep and firm, as if he could see through every struggle and calculation in Shen Lingling's heart. He thought to himself that if Shen Lingling didn't humble herself and apologize sincerely, he would never let it go easily.

This conflict has reached a critical moment where it must be resolved. Shen Lingling gritted her teeth, and a trace of unwillingness flashed across her face. That unwilling expression was like a meteor across the night sky, fleeting.

She pretended to be calm and said coldly: "You really think no one can cure you, right? Wait, don't think I will be afraid of you. Do you dare to let me call for help?" Although there was a hint of tough threat in her words, people who were familiar with her could hear that she was just trying to save face and restore some dignity.

When Xiao Chen heard this, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile. That smile was filled with confidence and calmness, as if everything in the world was under his control.

"Okay, you call for help, I'll wait. The Hero Valley is no longer viable, so is it time for you, the Oracle Sect, to take action?" Xiao Chen said slowly, his tone full of provocation, "But I remind you, except for your Grand Elder Shen Huo, others should not come and embarrass themselves, because they can't be my opponent."

Although Xiao Chen's voice was not loud, it echoed in the restaurant like a huge bell and was clearly heard by everyone.

Xiao Chen's sharp and provocative words were like a bolt of lightning accompanied by thunder, exploding in the restaurant with a bang.

In an instant, everyone seemed to be frozen by an invisible spell. They stood still, with expressions frozen into pictures of astonishment.

Then, their eyes seemed to be stretched open by an invisible force, widening into a circle, with a mixture of excitement and shock flashing in their eyes, like bright stars lit up in the night sky.

"Oh my god, this kid is really awesome!" Among the crowd, a young man in an old gray robe was the first to recover from his shock. His voice trembled violently with excitement, like a leaf in the wind.

As he spoke, he waved his arms vigorously, as if this could express his inner shock. "He actually opened his mouth and directly challenged the Grand Elder Shen Huo of the Oracle Sect! How brave is he! He is simply challenging the gods!"

The people around him all agreed, nodding their heads, their faces full of amazement and disbelief. In the Eastern Region, the Grand Elder Shen Huo of the Oracle Sect was like the blazing sun hanging high in the sky, his reputation was as loud as thunder, and it made people feel awed.

However, Xiao Chen was so bold as to openly challenge this giant. This action was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, stirring up thousands of waves. How could it not make everyone stunned? (End of this chapter)
